Would not want...

Re: Would not want...

Next day: clear weather but VERY cold. My right hands fingers got frozen on the way up even with wearing a pair of Mammut Zermatt gloves (inside with windstopper and additional outside glove).
The fingernails hurt for some days after and felt quite strange, but I think nothing will stay and my fingers will be 100% ok again :-)
